September 25

Four of Wands – Although you need to work, you are still home for the day.  Take time to wallow in the comfort of your environment, and time to open your mouth and cry out with what needs to be released in a place where you feel safe and don’t have to deal with others watching you, worrying about you, or judging you.  Home is the place to let things rip, as it’s your safe place.

Eight of Cups – Un-clench your teeth.  Take a breath and let things move at their own pace for once.  There’s no need to push, and clenching your fists to plow forward when you don’t need to is causing you harm.  It’s time to turn things around before you fall so deeply in the pit you end up stuck in there.  Release what isn’t working and let it drift away.

Today’s meditation was ten minutes long, and was focused on the message in today’s cards, which is…

Ten of Wands – “You are not a burden. We are lucky to have you.” Just don’t over-burden yourself trying to prove that you’re not a burden to others. You have nothing to prove.  Stop trying to do so much all on your own when you have others willing to help you carry your burdens.

Boo Boo BunnyMy Love

Darkness creeps in
to say hello
and try to crush
my heart
in its fist
as self destruction
takes the wheel
to steer for a day
and when
the smoke clears
he is there
with open arms
to patch wounds
and help in
piecing everything
back together again

🌕 Full Moon in Aries – September 2023

/ Twist the Leaf / Leave a comment

Tomorrow is the full moon, and like all new moons and full moons, I did a spread aligned to the moon’s current themes as a part of my recognition of the moon’s cycle and influences upon us. Today’s spread is brought to you by lightning.

Full Moon in Aries Oracle Reading with the Wild & Sacred Feminine Oracle Deck

What half truths about myself do I need to acknowledge and release in order to rock my authenticity?

River – Acknowledge that there is strength in submission and surrender. Just as the river bends and turns, flowing to the whims of topography and gravity and yet also carves away at stone and molds the land in its wake, your strength often resides in yielding instead of going against the flow.

How can I tap into my TRUE potential to accomplish my core desires?

Star atop Threshold – Dream high and then put your mind and determination to it. If whatever it is is really what you want and you put your intention into getting there, you will always find a way.

In what aspect of my life do I need to step up to the plate as a leader?

Lioness atop Hummingbird – To lean into positivity and optimism takes trust and courage. When you allow yourself that trust, you show others what is possible. Don’t let your naturally pessimistic tendencies win.

When would I benefit from taking risks and being impulsive?

Artemis atop Brigid – Your space is your to do with as you wish. Don’t let worries about the chaos of changing things hold you back.

Full Moon advice from the Minoan Goddess Amalthea.

Deer – Be kind to yourself. Treat yourself with gentleness and kinship.
